Costa's loop questions, design, tracking and limitations

Why does Costa's loop PLL bandwidth need to be narrow? and why can't it track a certain frequency offset? and does that hold even if it has a filter with a pole at DC?

How to decide what platform is best to implement real-time audio processing on?

When developing products I do all of my algorithm design in Matlab. They are usually pretty basic, an IIR or FIR filter or two, a couple FFTs, etc. When it comes time to move it to an embedded ...

What does 'canonical' mean?

What does 'canonical' mean? e.g. 'write IIR or FIR in canonical form' I get the gist of it but maybe someone here has a precise definition. In a non-DSP context it would mean something like '...

SNR of a 16-bit DSP with 12-bit ADC, 40-bit accumulator

According to the 6dB-per-bit rule, a 16-bit DSP would provide 96 dB of dynamic range, approximately. If the ADC and DAC are both 12-bit long, the DSP is still considered to have 96 dB, or the ...

FFT of a $N$-length real sequence via FFT of a $N/2$-length complex sequence

I am doing FFT. The one way I did is to put real part in one array and the imaginary part as zeros and then calculated the FFT. But this take up lots of resources. Now I want to calculate FFT by ...

FIXED POINT conversion Problem (DSP)

Actually after reading the data from ADC is an $Q15$ format (ie. ADC supports 0-3.3v, ADC is an unipolar type). then the $Q15$ data is converted to $q31$ format ($Q31$ value = $q15_{data}$ <<16)....
